Feminine Charm

Something about the silhouette of a fit and flare that is so flirty and feminine! I find it flattering on a shorter figure. May flowers are blooming and the humidity is rising, which means navy stripes are begging to be worn! The combination of navy, white and gold is slightly nautical but screams chic! Such a simple palette, but such a bold statement.

Exaggerated Peplum

I'm on board the peplum train and I squealed a little when I found this one with such an exaggerated one! The contour on the waist followed by a dramatic flare make for a figure flattering top! I belted it to break up the black with gold and per usual insisted on a pop; so I let the citrus pumps speak for themselves.

THE Black Pant

For all you ladies searching for the perfect black work pant...I have hit gold! (and they aren't expensive, link below) These are my favorite pair of black pants and I love the fit! I snagged this top at a J.Crew warehouse sale this weekend in Asheville. I'm always looking for a little sparkle, so the metallic thread woven into the top does it for me!
